  My friend and guide in Arusha, Baltazary, had planned the day for me starting out at Lake Duluti where, Ebenezer, one of the guides from the Tengeru Cultural Tourism Program took me on a canoeing excursion around the lake. From the start it was very apparent Ebenezer loves his job as he communicated to me his extensive knowledge about the lake and the many facets of its ecosystem. It was a wonderful experience and I hope to return to in November when the Flamingos are scheduled to return to the lake. After finishing at the lake we drove to the program's center where I was warmly greeted by the program's founder and director, Mama Gladness and introduced to Hilary who, together with Ebenezer, gave me a tour explaining how the center is set up to teach sustainable ecotourism practices. In addition, I learned that they work with girls and young women in the community teaching them about their reproductive rights as well as teaching locals how to make beautiful furniture out of native plant materials. I was then shown how they raise their livestock and the process that allows them to use the manure and urine from their animals to create the methane used to power their ovens. We then took a walk into the hills where Hilary and Ebenezer pointed out the various plants and vegetation along the way explaining in detail what I was seeing and how it all fits in the ecosystem. At the end of the trail we arrived at the spot where their coffee plants were growing. What an interesting education I received on the stages of the coffee bean's growth and what happens from the time it's picked to the time in ends up in my coffee cup. I will never take my coffee for granted again. When we arrived back at the center I was taught how to make my own coffee. I first roasted the beans and when finished I pounded the darkened beans with a giant wooden mortar and pestle until the coffee was ground fine. Hilary then boiled water in a kettle and added the coffee I had made with my own two hands, with a little/lot of help. I had no idea what to expect but the coffee was truly delicious. In fact, I made my last cup this morning in Arroyo Grande, California where I live. I'm so sorry it's finished. At the end of my visit Mama Gladness presented me with a Certificate of Guarantee that a tree will be planted on my behalf this coming April in 2025. Needless to say, I was very moved and it was a day I will not soon forget. I highly recommend anyone visiting Arusha to visit the Tengeru Cultural Tourism Program Center because I'm sure it will be one of the highlights of your visit and the fee you pay will be going to an incredible cause. Thank you Mama Gladness, Hilary and Ebenezer. I hope yo see you again in the not too distant future, Leonard Manzella

  We had the best coffee tour ever! We even roasted and drank our own coffee. Every one at the farm was very nice and warmful. We also met the founder of the organization, a most remarkable woman who supports many development projects in the Arusha region. We are happy to support their projects! A big thank you to everyone at the farm and to Lanyuni for giving us the chance to discover this place!
